PARIS, December 3.-The papers
condemn the message sent by Presi-
dent Grevy to the Chamber yesterday
with his resignation.
M. Floquet has withdrawn his res
ignation as President OF the Chamber
of Deputies.
Military reinforcements are arriving
in the city. M. Grevy, after his re-
moval from Elysee, took up his resi-
dence in Avenue Diana.
The Republic Francaise says that
the attempt to ostracise NJ. Ferry is
really aimed at the opportunist party,
who, however, will not allow them
selves to be excluded from sharing the
affairs of the Republic.
